know how to use a wood bat
this bat is awesome. if you swing at about 80-90% and square the ball up on the sweet-spot the ball just jumps. for those saying it breaks too easily. either you hit the ball off the handle, the end, or you had the Rawlings logo facing forward or back. the logo should be facing up or down at all times. hold the bat as if in mid swing just in front of the plate where you would make contact and rotate the bat in your hands until the logo is facing up or down.

Rawlings R243 Big Stick Pro Maple Bat
This bat seems to hold up. This is the second one I have bought for my son. The first one lasted a year. He's a freshman in high school and plays on a select team also. So he hits a lot off of it. Good bat for the price.

A Big League bat
Nicely balanced. A quality bat for the price. Always nice to hear the crack of a wooden bat in the cage.

Great bat Great qualities
very good bat, smooth and sleek with a really nice pop, I use it over my marucci
I highly recommend this bat especially for high school players ,considering the description mentioned above and the past 3 Louisville sluggers have broke in games. I used this bat previous summer ball and will use it in high school ball next . Also a pretty decent price, considering how much better it is then other brands.

Great Bat
Compared to the Louisville Slugger bat the Rawlings Pro Maple Bat has a slimmer handle. As soon as you pick the bat up and grab it with both hands, it just feels right. Great bat, price was a little high. Found it at Academy Sports and Outdoors for $20 cheaper and that was after Dick's $10 discount. Wish I would've looked around more before I bought, since you can't return a wood bat once you have used it. Great bat, not a great price, even when it was, "on sale". Academy Sports and Outdoors will definitely be my first stop next time. Same great products, that are cheaper when they are NOT on sale.
